Default How do I flush my dns cache?

Hi

Some members are having trouble logging into the forum and having to reset their password. You may have to "flush your dns cache"

The following links will give you instructions on how to do that.

This link will work for Windows
http://www.vertster.com/blog/2009/07/4-ways-to-quickly-clear-the-cookies-for-just-one-site-or-domain/

This link will work for FireFox 14

Cheers

Don

Rather than flushing our cache of cookies that we have previously banned from our computers, would you please just tell us the name of the cookie that you place on our computers so we can specifically allow it to remain ?

That is exactly what I am trying to avoid. Many web sites use cookies legitimately to help you log in and save personalized settings.

Where's the connection between DNS Cache and cookies? Two very different things. If you want to selectively delete or save cookies, download the free program CCleaner. It allows you to see what cookies are stored, select which to keep, and delete the rest. Also does a good job of cleaning temporary internet files from IE and other browsers and e-mail clients.
